Parents and Coaches Rules!!

This is a quick reminder to the parents and coaches - Level 8 tournaments are entry level events... the kids will make bad line calls (usually not on purpose!), they will lose track of the score, serve from the wrong side, foot fault, and make just about every error you can think of. We all tend to live a little vicariously through our kids, but please let them work thru it on their own!! These tournaments are non-elimination events that don't earn ranking points and are designed to get them used to match play and prepare them to play in higher level events. The 8 and Under players will have a court monitor on each court, the other divisions will have 1 monitor per 3 courts. Tennis is an individual sport, parents and coaches are not allowed to be inside the fence, talk to the players (other than cheering), or take part in the match in any way other than as a spectator. Thank you!

All divisions are non-elimination round robins. Tournament winner and runner up will be determined by total match wins EXCEPT ORANGE BALL. See notes below about Orange Ball format.
